Lyrics I Am Only an Island - Therefore I Am

I Am Only an Island

Still there is no hope in holdin' on
So now I lean on you as I do
One with the wind
We were nothin' more than a moment
Just wish in a well
A piece of trash to pass
On the road back home
And I alone live only in an island
Lonely a mark
Set in the center of an ocean
This ocean that is you
On the shores where we both grew
We built our love like castles in the sand
Your greedy hands, your greedy hands
Your tides, your lies eroded everything
I don’t wanna burn the bridge, no
I wanna burn the fuckin' town we built it in
So I can be reborn in a city I once adored
With a clean slate, new name, new face
Blank book without a crease in a page
And once again I feel trapped
Alongside all this trash
I pass out on Harvard Avenue
And as for you, you were never a trophy
You were never a notch
'Cause my belt’s not like the other boys
The other ones that you took off
You fuckin' whore
We built our love like castles in the sand
Your greedy hands, your greedy hands
Your tides, your lies eroded everything
I hope you know
We built our love like castles in the sand
Your greedy hands, your greedy hands
Your tides, your lies eroded everything
I hope you know
I am done, done
